The polar magnet Fe2Mo3O8 has recently attracted tremendous interests due its versatile properties, such as magnetoelectric effect and giant thermal hall effect. This compound has a polar hexagonal (space group P63mc) structure at room temperature and undergoes a collinear antiferromagnetic ordering of Fe2+ moments below TN = 60 K, accompanied by a large electric polarization besides that of the structural origin. Upon application of (high) magnetic field, a metamagnetic transition from the antiferromagnetic to a ferrimagnetic state takes place. The ferrimagnetic state can also be stabilized by partially substituting Fe2+ ions by Zn2+ ions. The magnetic symmetry (6mm) of the ferrimagnetic state is compatible with a linear magnetoelectric effect. In this talk, I will show that at the coercive field of the isothermal reversal of a ferrimagnetic state in Fe1.86Zn0.14Mo3O8 the pristine antiferromagnetic state re-emerges as a metastable state. The reappearance of the antiferromagnetic state, supported by the theoretical calculations, is reflected in a large change of electric polarization and directly established by the reoccurrence of the characteristic low-energy THz excitation of the AFM state.
